I… Don’t like Apple at all. I’m engaging in a thing called a thought experiment, which is required to rationally assess why somebody might not want to throw away things they have purchased and devote both more time and more money to something that doesn’t work as well as it.
So I don’t know what all the cool killer Mac apps. Replace Photoshop with the name of a bunch of cool killer Mac apps, and repeat the question.
Not sure if it’s a fallacy if it’s about addressing people who have spent a ton on an ecosystem and can’t just devote more money to buy the alternative and time to figure out the parts that aren’t compatible
I know that, but why did you bring it up in order to contrast it with Mozilla’s consumer base? Do you mean to say that Google is the actual paying customer?
It seems like such a bizarre thing to bring up at all.
I (and other people) have already said that re-buying the same products and learning alternative ones is expensive in both time and money. That’s the point.
And I don’t know a ton of iOS killer apps but you would probably have to convince people with a ton of effort that Procreate is replaced by something on Android, let alone any other app I don’t know about
You asked what parts aren’t compatible, and one answer is everything bought for Apple computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. Apps, media, anything that isn’t subscription based.
A bit less private because things are going through one fewer hop, in addition to having to sign up. In my experience with Invisiv, it’s much faster and more reliable than Tor, but slower and much less stable than a traditional VPN.
It would be cool if more commercial VPN companies adopted this kind of tech.
After reading their documentation a little closer, I discovered something else unsavory about Private Relay: it “relays” your approximate location, as it could usually be derived from your IP address.
Nostr is a public, “all your content are belong to us” platform designed for the transmission of cryptocurrency and increasing its value for its owners first, and privacy dead last.
I am absolutely aghast that Firefox would say Firefox is the best web browser. Their chart is, however, open to external audit so it is entirely unimpeachable.
(This is a parody of people who were arguing in favor of an “independent” browser privacy website run by someone paid by one of the browser companies)
As most people here might know, Session utilises a TOR-like onion routing system with some changes to route traffic. The username is the public key whilst the password is the private key....
Simplifiedprivacy dot com needs to be blacklisted from Lemmy communities, it’s a blog trying to sell some really silly services.
As for Session, they’ve never made an original product that I’ve ever seen - they took Signal and Monero, peeled off the labels, and made them (especially Signal, IMO) worse in both aesthetics and privacy protection.
And the company behind this is in Australia, a country where you need to weaken products (by adding backdoors) upon government request.
Mozilla says Apple’s new browser rules are “as painful as possible” for Firefox (www.theverge.com)
Mozilla is unhappy because the use of browser engines other than WebKit will be restricted to the EU, forcing them to develop two different apps....
Apple is finally allowing full versions of Chrome and Firefox to run on the iPhone (www.theverge.com)
How private is Apple's Private Relay, really?
You’re forced to use Cloudflare. Don’t they track … everything?

Why do you think they don't show Brave here? (lemmy.ml)
Firefox updated today and I’m wondering why they don’t put Brave in this table, what’s your opinion on this? 🤔
What is the community's opinion on Session and Session Automated Software?
As most people here might know, Session utilises a TOR-like onion routing system with some changes to route traffic. The username is the public key whilst the password is the private key....
